In today’s fast-paced software development landscape, ensuring quality from the very beginning is not just a best practice…
With over 16 years of experience spanning development, testing, Agile methodologies, and project and product management, I’ve worked across diverse industries, including automotive, rail transport, aviation, VoIP, web solutions, and CCM. But beyond the technical expertise, my true passion lies in understanding people—how they think, learn, and grow. As a certified coach with 6+ years in leadership, team development, and mentoring, I integrate Compassionate Inquiry, Positive Psychology, and coaching methodologies into my approach, helping teams bridge gaps, communicate better, and work more effectively. My focus isn’t just on building quality software but also on creating high-performing, motivated teams that understand the “why” behind testing and development. At the intersection of technology and human behavior, I continue learning and sharing knowledge—helping developers, testers, and leaders navigate complexity, improve collaboration, and create impactful business solutions.
In today’s fast-paced software development landscape, ensuring quality from the very beginning is not just a best practice—it is a strategic advantage that saves both time and money. When developers apply SDET Testing Essentials, they actively contribute to delivering efficient, cost-effective, and high-quality software. The Shift-Left approach empowers them to integrate quality considerations early in the development lifecycle—reducing late-stage defects, minimizing rework, and accelerating time to market. By proactively addressing potential issues, teams can prevent costly failures, enhance software stability, and streamline workflows. The SDET Testing Essentials Certification provides professionals with fundamental testing knowledge and practical skills to collaborate more effectively in building robust, maintainable, and high-performing software. Embracing a quality-first mindset enables developers to write more testable, resilient code and contribute directly to a seamless software delivery process. Join us in shifting left—because delivering excellence starts at the foundation of development.

The QA field is constantly evolving—shifting requirements, new automation tools, changing development methodologies, and increasing demands for speed and efficiency. Yet, resistance to change remains a significant challenge. Have you ever felt frustrated by sudden process shifts, skeptical about adopting new testing strategies, or struggled to get developers on board with quality improvements? This session explores how Positive Intelligence (PQ) can help QA professionals navigate resistance—both their own and from others—by turning change into an opportunity for growth. By identifying mental saboteurs that trigger fear, rigidity, or conflict, PQ strengthens mental agility, fosters adaptability, and enhances collaboration. Attendees will gain practical strategies to embrace change with confidence, overcome pushback from developers, and build stronger partnerships for quality-driven development. Join us to discover how mental fitness can help QA teams not just cope with change, but lead it.
